INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Your Elna 2600/2800 series sewing machine is designed and constructed for HOUSEHOLD use only. Read

all instructions before using this machine.

DANGER – To reduce the risk of electric shock:

1. Your sewing machine should never be left unattended when plugged in. Always unplug the machine from

the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.

2. Always unplug before replacing light bulb. Replace bulb with same bayonet socket type, 15W max.

3. Do not place or store machine where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink. Do not reach for the machine

if it has fallen into water. Unplug immediately.

WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electrical shock or injury:

1. Do not allow machine to be used as a toy. Supervision is necessary when this machine is used by or

near children.

2. Use this sewing machine only for its intended use as described in this manual. Only use attachments

recommended by the manufacturer as described in this manual.

3. Never operate this machine if it has a damaged cord or plug, is not working properly, has been dropped

or damaged or dropped into water. Return the machine to the nearest authorized dealer or service center

for examination, repair, electrical or mechanical adjustment.

4. This machine is equipped with a special connection cord which, if damaged, must be replaced by an

identical cord. This can be obtained from your dealer.

5. Never operate the sewing machine with any air opening blocked. Keep ventilation openings of the sewing

machine and foot control free from the accumulation of lint, dust and fibers.

6. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

7. Do not use outdoors.

8. Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.

9. To disconnect, turn machine off and remove plug from outlet.

10. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

11. Keep fingers away from all moving parts, especially the needle.

12. Always use the proper needle plate. The wrong plate can cause the needle to break.

13. Do not use bent needles.

14. Do not pull or push fabric while stitching. This may deflect the needle causing it to break.

15. Switch the sewing machine off when making any adjustment in the needle area, such as threading

needle, changing needle, threading bobbin, changing presser foot, etc.

16. Always unplug the sewing machine from the electrical outlet when removing covers, lubricating or making

any other servicing adjustments mentioned in the instruction manual.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

USA only

Your machine comes equipped with a polarized plug (one prong wider than the other). A polarized plug reduces

the risk of electrical shock. This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit

fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper

outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.

Use only foot control YC-482J or TJC-150 (UL, CSA).

WARNING:

While in operation, always keep your eyes on the sewing

area, and do not touch any moving parts such as the

thread take-up lever, flywheel or needle.

Always turn off the power switch and unplug from the

power supply:

- when leaving the machine unattended.

- when attaching or removing parts.

For an appliance with a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other):

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way.

If it does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the

proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.

The foot controller Model YC-482J or TJC-150 is used with the sewing machine Models 2600 and 2800 (USA market

only).

SECTION 2. GETTING READY TO SEW

Fine Tuning Stretch Stitches

To select the stretch stitches, set the stitch length dial at

S.S.

If the stretch stitches are uneven when you sew on a

particular fabric, correct them by turning the stitch length

dial.

If the stitches are drawn out, correct them by setting the

dial to the “–” side.

If the stitches are compressed, correct them by setting

the dial to the “+” side.

Stitch Width Dial

Turn the stitch width dial until stitch width number is

aligned with setting mark.

The higher the number, the wider the stitch.

q Stitch width dial

w Setting mark

CAUTION:

Do not turn the stitch width dial while the needle is in the

fabric; the needle may bend or break.

Do not set the stitch width less than 5 when using foot C;

the needle may hit the foot causing the needle to bend

or break.

Variable needle position

The needle drop position of the straight stitch (1, 12 on

model 2800 and 1, 10 on model 2600) can be moved

between the center (5) and left (0) with the stitch width

dial.

Balancing Needle Thread Tension

The thread tension should be adjusted depending on the

sewing materials, layers of fabric and sewing method.

To adjust the thread tension, turn the thread tension dial.

q Thread tension dial

Balanced tension:

The ideal straight stitch has threads locked between two

layers of fabric, as illustrated.

For an ideal zigzag stitch, the bobbin thread does not

show on the right side (top side) of the fabric, and the

needle thread shows slightly on the wrong side (bottom

side) of the fabric.

w Needle thread (Top thread)

e Bobbin thread (Bottom thread)

r Right side (Top side) of fabric

t Wrong side (Bottom side) of fabric

Needle thread tension is too tight:

The bobbin thread (bottom thread) will appear on the

right side (top side) of the fabric.

Loosen the needle thread tension by moving the dial to a

lower number.

Needle thread tension is too loose:

The needle thread (top thread) will form loops on the

wrong side (bottom side) of the fabric.

Tighten the needle thread tension by moving the dial to a

higher number.

the back. Depress the foot control.

NOTE:

To fasten the beginning of the seam, first sew several

stitches in reverse then sew forward.

Changing the sewing direction

Stop the machine and turn the flywheel toward you to

bring the needle down into the fabric.

Raise the presser foot.

Pivot the fabric around the needle to change sewing

direction as desired. Lower the presser foot and continue

sewing in the new direction.

Finishing sewing

Press the reverse stitch lever and sew several stitches in

reverse at the end of the seam.

Raise the presser foot and remove the fabric, drawing

the threads to the back.

Draw the threads up and into the thread cutter.
